So I just got an Anniversary SG 45. The shutter runs fine at high tension (probably needs adjusted, I haven't put film through it) but at low tension (just on "1" and "2") it doesn't want to fire on the slowest speeds and I have to manually put pressure on the winder knob. Obviously I need to clean it and apply a tiny bit of lube--probably just a drop of sewing machine oil. I've done the same to a Pacemaker SG 45-- is it much different? I see that you have to loosen a set screw and remove the winder knob as there is no slit in the plate to allow it to pass through when removing the plate. And the plate for the mainspring and the tension knob is separate, unlike on Pacemaker. I have to remove all tension from the spring before I remove the plate, right?
What about the access ports on the opposite side of the camera-- nothing unusual I need to do before unscrewing those, is there?
Any other advice?
